that sheriff was actually talking about putting black people in boxes to prevent them from having children. wow
And for our next gameshow. "Fascist rally or Republican Convention!?" "The best has yet to come". Was this phrase uttered at A) Republican Convention 2020 or B) Nazi rally 1935. You have 30 seconds to answer from...Now.
Ethnic cleansing is a very effective strategy against ethnic differences. Ask China.
Fear of 'these people". This is not new and instigators on both sides will only make matters worse.
That clip made me realize something: Prisons in America are awfully close to the concentration camps of WWII...
Yes. Shocking. That sheriff needs to be fired.
Sheriff Dave Beth talks about after “this generation is gone” and they’ve “perished in these buildings.” He’s talking about building concentration camps then re-using them as malls when the “final solution” is complete.
Thanks for clarifying, Gus. That is indeed what that dear gentle sheriff was saying.
I was hoping Jon Oliver would have had an Auschwitz/mall joke after that clip....but I guess it's not that funny.
What amazes me is that this was a press conference and it seem to bother anyone.
See, internet consrvatives were making fun of anyone who correctly calls these people Nazis for about 5 years now. There needs to be a more left-wing pushback against this kind of shit. We need to depose all Nazis and fascists from positions of power by any means necessary if we are to have actual freedom and fix any of the problems with this country. This sherif should have no public position as it is clear what he is advocating for.
Welcome to 1939 Germany...
wait wait wait, he basicly explained in USA the concept of a death camp as a solution for "young black men" and is still a sheriff?
Yupp th-cam.com/video/yxB41_YUnWs/w-d-xo.html
Smh. I’m from Madison Wisconsin like an hr from kenosha and never heard this. This should have made the headlines of papers if America really isn’t racist “anymore.” Smh. Whatta joke
This is America; First Amendment gives you the right to advocate for Genocide....We hope No-one takes you Serious.

@@hellfrost333 yes it gives you the right as a private citizen to essentially say whatever you want but this is a government official who expressed these beliefs while in his official capacity..... Do you not see the issue?
I swear each week I’m like “how can this get worse?” Then I hear a cop propose the idea of literal concentration camps and I’m proved wrong again.
That's America for ya. I'm glad you guys voted out the Orange 💩 because he created an atmosphere where people now think that it's perfectly fine to be open about their Racist views. But America Still has a boat load of issues to fix before they can call themselves the greatest country in the world. Because it definitely hasn't been for decades.

@@StellaStarfall I know that it is "just" a computer game, but in Red Dead Redemption 2 there are some missions you are doing for and with an Indian tribe and all of it was just so fucking sad, I didn't even wanna finish the story line. I don't think a game ever has made me cry before and this one managed it twice. And while I was playing the game my mind wandered to all those that died in horrific ways over the course of our human history and I once more started hating what we are and why we can not be better. There is so much pathetic, empathyless trash wandering this planet, you'd wish we just finally blow it all up and call it a day, since, as we are constantly being remembered of by olivers videos, humanity will never change.

So why say concentration camps.
You have to know you are lying?
You know you're an extremist when you end up calling a moderate "radical".
Recipe for success in our system:
Radicalise, call the other side radical and yourself moderate. Ignore the politics of the rest of the world and push an America = world view. Call everyone who doesn't agree with you a liar and once enough people believe you there'll be at least one news network that will do it for you to make money off of it.
@Invert Your Cross I love how his point flew a mile above your head XD
Invert Your Cross i disagree and think none of us are political scientist but I wont argue as you asked
@Invert Your Cross ah another person who doesn’t know how political positions/ideologies work
@Invert Your Cross Hiya! I'm not sure if you've heard of the Overton window, but it's a really fascinating bit of political theory that explains why some things seem moderate to a particular group at certain times in history and others don't. If anyone to the left of you seems "radical", up to and including the incredibly centrist Joe Biden, it may be beneficial to actually explore what those people are saying. Even if it is just an exercise in reaffirming your own beliefs, it can be very enlightening!
This Sheriff comments make me sick in my stomach.
Charlie Grisham seems he misses the nazis or something. Its sad that Germany welcomes refugees and helps where it can while we build walls and have sheriffs who consider building concentration camps in 2020
What the actual fuuuuuu! Dude I almost puked!
Maybe Amazon can use him after he is fired.
Yeah.
As it fucking should be! Putting "a whole generation of people in camps to rot them out for a next, better generation" should create such feelings.
An American sheriff declares his support for concentration camps. Never thought I'd see it.
The scary part isnt that he said it. Its that he thought it was fine to let it be recorded.
It gets worse. Joe Arpaio actually ran them.
Sounded more like extermination camps to me
We did it to the Japanese citizens 80 years ago.
You must not have been paying attention then. Much of what went on in Nazi Germany was borrowed from USA...
Funnily enough, Ive never actually thought "we should put shoplifters in warehouses until they die".
Once upon a time, bland, nondescript deviate sociopaths like D. Beth were given great powers and their ideas were taken to the next level and actually enacted upon and many millions of people were in fact warehoused in barracks and in cages and ''put in warehouses until they die". True story.

Harvey Weinstein have ya thought about making movies?
@Harvey Weinstein I'm sure you feel the same about the Kenosha shooter that crossed state lines to murder two protestors, then? What about Trump, who we know kept his mouth shut about covid19 and STILL refuses to take ANY substantive federal action? Just throw him in a warehouse? What about Rand Paul, who refused to wear a mask and didn't even bother to tell anyone he was positive for covid? Every Trumper that refuses to wear a mask, for that matter? Just throw them in a warehouse and lock them in a cage until they die?
@Harvey Weinstein or how about a movie about an incel so frustrated with their own lack of achievement who experiences such traumatic cognitive dissonance born from the conflict of their functional failure at odds with their own over-inflated sense of self-importance, that they then create a youtube account with the name of a convicted rapist so that FINALLY they might get some attention and feel as though people might, for the very first time, give a shite about what has come out of their incel mouth.
Eugenics was left in the 1940s. I suggest it stays there. If you're interested in sharing political ideas and having a discussion how about you change that filth you have as a user name and grow the fuck up... and stop making me irritated enough that my own username becomes ironic...
"Until this generation is gone" sounds a lot like genocide.
Trump loves dictators so let's hope he is not striving to emulate China and their genocide of Uigurs next
@@andersblogandersblog2842 : He pretty much tried that with the detention camps at the Mexican border. He's already actively hindering mail-in voting and disrupting the postal service to do so. If that doesn't scream dictatorship, then I don't know what is.

You sound like a heavily indocrinated robot.
"[...] we'd be one step closer to government run healthcare." As someone from outside the US hearing this as a bad thing feels incredibly absurd.
You haven’t met our government
You also haven't met the money that runs our government
Most Americans accept this Republican talking point, demonizing govt run health care. Democrats, the party on the left here, cede the power to define what is possible to the Republicans on health care and other issues. The Democratic candidates typically water down positions for fear of Republican attack and Democratic voters argue that other voters won't accept something so "radical" (even though many polls show significant majority support by Americans for various social reforms).
It's hard to see it for what it is -- because for one thing, the country has been gaslit for years by Republicans who have us pretend other countries do not provide much better for their citizens. I believe this cannot change until Democrats as a party take off these blinders and insist that the distorted, xenophobic Republican framing is unacceptable and ludicrous. The quality of life in the US will continue its precipitous slide until this dynamic changes.
Its unreal to me that politicians rail against gov Healthcare with the argument of "Do you want US to be in charge of your Healthcare? Look how bad we are at everything! Clearly you don't want us to be running healthcare!"
@@Nlong2112 "greatest country in the world" xD
Alright. St Louisan here. The McCloskeys were - unsurprisingly - terrible before all of this. They undermined their own story of events that lead to them threatening protesters, which isnt too shocking considering witnesses and video refute their claims too; liescan be hard to keep up when you give a marathon of interviews.
They have a history of being aggressively territorial. One night, Mrs. McCloyskey shot from a window at a woman (who lived in their neighborhood) crossing a piece of land the McCloyskeys claimed to own. The ownership of the land was contested, but she still felt entitled enough to fire a weapon at someone for being on it.
They sue people over property so much they've sued their own family. They also went to court to try to stop unmarried (by which they meant gay) couples from moving into the neighborhood, so Trump's "I'll save the suburbs" bit probably feels quite natural to them.
Another time, the synagogue by them put beehives along their north wall as part of their children's program and the McCloyskey's choice on how to handle the matter was to just destroy them.
So, if you see anyone defending them or come across any remnants of their "well we are actually democrats and social justice advocates" facade (it crumbled early on), take it from someone who immediately researched what i could about them and their neighborhood they day it happened: they've always been nasty people who will fire a gun over property alone.
Would 100% have been major parts of a White Citizens' Council
Did Patricia McCloskey write Episode 3 of Lovecraft Country perchance?

@DECIMUS MAXIMUS First of all, chillax. Second of all, if you think just because you see someone on disputed land it's alright to shoot someone over it, your views might be a bit worrying. Im not saying that they aren't allowed to protect their property, but when it isn't even fully theirs yet and they decide to escalate the situation from 0 to a hot 100, that's when they enter crazy zone. And that crazy zone becoming normalized is very detrimental to society, It becomes an endorsement for fatal violence as a solution to issues which could be solved by other means, it ends up in unnecessary violence.

Forget Kimberly “Don, Jr. Taint Licking” Guilfoyle’s speech and scary tone. What’s scarier than that are people who genuinely feel represented by that kind of speech. The fact that Trump even stands a chance given our climate, racial tension, and corona virus handling is enough for me to almost give up hope that this country will ever move forward again in my lifetime.

This show used to be funny because the US used to be kind of funny. Nothing about what is happening there is funny now, every new story coming from the US is either sad or enraging. For the love of God REGISTER TO VOTE AND VOTE NOW. Your country will not survive 4 more years of putting out fire with gasoline. VOTING HAS STARTED. YOU CAN VOTE TODAY.
That's right. Trump has to win for the country to survive.
our votes matter zero in presidential level elections.
I agree - nothing is funny anymore...
It’s sadly true-not so amusing anymore. I suppose it’s comforting to not live in the US. Also, the fact that after the last few years Trump still has his fanboys either indicates an incredible level of gullibility in that country or indicates serious issues with their education system.
Bamboo Kun all so true. We will never survive, ever, 4 more years.
"Maybe they should stop protesting after curfew"
Well maybe you shouldn't be causing all these issues to be protested about

@Boyd Crowder you know he did not have the knife. It was his phone but ueah you're asshole.
@Boyd Crowder Why do you clowns not understand, that a system in which any disobedience of a police equals death is BAD. There are so many unlawful stops and arrests that in many cases, people are within their right to resist arrest or not listen to a cop. Are those people supposed to die as well?
@Boyd Crowder "Only 9 unarmed black men were killed." How many unarmed people do we need to kill for it to become wrong for the police to kill unarmed people? Just curious.
The world is on fire and the GOP are like “the best is yet to come”. Trump could have just started WWIII and they would still be talking about how “Joe Bidden is ruining America”.
@Live Life Funny how protests and riots at this magnitude never happened with previous presidents whether republican or democrat. Trump and the corrupt GOP enabler is burning down the U.S. to the ground. And I mean it figuratively. Putin loves it.
it IS funny. because leftists TRULY BELIEVE that the world is burning down around them... but they just cannot fathom that the entire US is not a carbon copy of their home.
and the best part is they act like its all trumps fault. trump cannot do jack shit at the state level. leftist states are in the gutter. most other states with balanced leadership or conservative majority leadership are thriving. even in this "pandemic".
its funny because these people are HUGE in numbers. they swing HUGE voting power. and yet they are so uneducated and so misinformed.

Nikki Haley: America is not a racist country
Also Nikki Haley: Here's my inspiring story about how my parents overcame racism in America.
Yeah Nimrata Randhawa Hal.... sorry... "Nikki" Haley would love for you to gather round for her heartwarming story about how totally not racist America welcomed her exactly as she is.
"America isn't racist now" and "America was racist many decades ago" aren't contradictory statements.
She has money and a platform now, therefore, nobody else matters.
Also Nikki Haley: And here's how my name used to be Nimrata Randhawa before I changed when I went into politics so that I could sound more white and escape racist reactions.
Or, you know... the biggest single deciding factor between allegiance to only two parties is the 2nd amendment, which was adjusted out of fear of blacks with guns.
I love it when people say the confederate flag represents the south, even though the south that it represented no longer exists because they lost that war to the north.
They are right, it represents destorying the USA like the traitors they are. Its their tradition.. so is destroying it the tradition of the USA.
Northerners don't run around with a Northern Flag like some Southern Gay, loser, Douche Bag either. Hmmm...I wonder why that is ?? Is it because Jesus loves Northerners just a bit more than Southerners ?
Did they really lose? Slavery was officially declared illegal everywhere, but Reconstruction was undermined, white southern racists quickly regained their power, Jim Crow was imposed (with support not just from southerners), thousands were lynched and lynchings by police continue today, unending efforts to disenfranchise African Americans began as soon as any of them were granted the franchise, race-based mass incarceration was instituted....the list goes on, and is long and infuriating.
@David Watts
The North won. Just turns out they weren't as progressive as history likes to make them out to be--many liberals don't bat an eye at the slavery and segregation going on in prisons and school districts respectively (some even wholeheartedly endorse it, though they back it with better PR).

He tried to pit the athletes against the poorer working class people and basically people who can't afford to protest, so that poor people will think to themselves that the athletes are just bratty rich people. This is a classic political move, to present things this way, and it was a thought-out move. He wants the athletes to look spoiled or hypocritical so the poorer, less educated whites won't believe them.

Askin' for a defund.
Chris Lane It’s interesting you bring up tax payers. Who do you think is paying for the 10 children, likely out of wedlock, and likely with multiple women, that the sheriff is referring to? I’ve worked in social services. Recently I had a mom with 8 children all 11yrs and younger. I was trying to get an evaluation scheduled for one of the kids, but she said she could not take the child, since she had no way to transport all the kids, and had no support system to watch the other children. I get it, recommending she have her tubes tied or gets on birth control takes away her choice, sounds like hitler. But at the same time, how many children do the tax payers pay for? Section 8, utility assistance, food stamps, medical assistance, cash assistance, SSI for some, free school lunches, etc. And what are the chances those 8 kids will be on welfare programs when they are older? But what can you do? Can the government force her to get her tubes tied? Can the government put a cap on the number of kids they will provide for? I had another mother once that lost custody of all her kids for abuse/neglect. She was pregnant with her 9th. Said she was going to keep having kids until the government let her keep one. The expense of paying for foster care or group homes, all on the tax payers dime. The sheriff is probably seeing the same crap day after day, year after year. When I was younger I used to think everyone should be sterile at birth. And it gets reversed after mandatory life skills and parenting classes. Everyone could get it reversed, there was no test even.....but they had to at least be exposed to the information. Just discussing sex ed with sexually active teens who don’t know what or when they ovulate, or all the STDs out there, etc was so frustrating.

Anyone sick of the obvious race baiting john oliver is trying to do? I know identity politics is a left wing thing but this stuff happened under obama as well
@n00bMaster69 racism is an issue. Society remains racist, to an extent.
However, it really is NOT a big deal if you compare it to other issues.
I will quote some facts here:
1.- On average, in the US, out of 100 white people killed by the police, 9 were unarmed.
2.- On average, in the US, out of 100 black people killed by the police, 15 were unarmed.
3.- In the US, on average, 3 persons are killed by the police every day.
4.- No matter what color you are, here in the US, out of every encounter with the police, you are 30 times more likely to end up dead than in European countries.
BLM? Yes they do. But,
Is racism the biggest issue, or general police brutality?
Maybe if Democrats adressed this issue more like "we have a police brutality issue and it impacts all Americans" rather than a racial issue that only impacts black people, they would get more things done thanks to bipartisan support. This, in my opinion, would be more efective at saving black lives (and some white, yellow and brown too).

"An empire toppled by its enemies can rise again, but one which crumbles from within - that's dead forever."
Thanks for quoting some fantasy character. here's the reality though, Alot of blacks and minorities feel as if they are not considered part of this country, Why is that? why instead of calling them "African American" Or "Hispanic American" why we can't just call them American? so when you quote "an empire toppled by it's enemies" who does white America consider their enemies? because there seems to be a confusion with that. And i'm not pegging you as a racist or ignorant i just want to point it out to other potentially ignorant people out there that can't seem to understand why so many people feel different about White America.
bro ha ohh ok got it!
@@ao.9169 you do know that quote wasn't directed at blacks but at the corrupt government right? don't take a knee jerk reaction to everything, you will just muddy the waters and can't tell who's trying to help versus who's trying to hurt.
@il Prete Rosso. Are you 5? Talk about inappropriate.
Steve Burnside That whole quote is a misdirection to what the reality of what is going on in America so please spare me the deflection. White America needs to come to the realization that most blacks and latinos, and asians and anybody else that is not caucasian do in fact feel alienated IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY. And that is the real root of the problem here. And although i see some White Americans seeing this and actually trying to better the situation it's still too many that side with evil.If that goof wins the white house again that is proof that alot more needs to be done in this country to make every citizen feel equal with "liberty and justice FOR ALL". That so called leader doesn't make everybody feel equal unfortunately. And don't take my word for it, the proof is in all those dumb tweets he has posted.

To be fair, Kyle claimed it was self-defense. I wasn't there so I can't really comment on if he was lying, and i wasn't present during the trial. But, If it truly was self defense then justice has prevailed and I want to believe in that.

Roy Wiseman, you’re dead wrong, or more likely, knowingly lying. Wisconsin is an open carry state. To carry, you must be at least 18. Rittenhouse is 17 and openly carried. Ergo, it was illegal. Case closed.
Also, the FBI has documented multiple instances of right wing provocateurs rioting, looting and engaging in arson in an effort to discredit protestors. So it is false to claim “all the burning is by BLM and Antifa.” Incidentally, the FBI has reported that they have found NO EVIDENCE of Antifa participation in the unrest.

@@roywiseman Go look up the origin of the term "cultural Marxism" and how it is basically an anti-Semitic conspiracy theory peddled by the far-right for decades and now made mainstream within the GOP after Trump came to power. "Cultural Marxism" is a commonly used term that says that every institution in the US has been infiltrated by Marxists. It directly comes from the term used by the Nazi Party in Germany called "cultural Bolshevism." The only difference between this and the full white nationalist conspiracy theory is that white nationalists say the Jews are behind it while mainstream Republicans don't really believe that.
Look at Black Pilled YT channel and the man behind it, Devon Stack. Look at his book "Day of the Rope." He's a full fledged neo-Nazi, and his book is just a re-write of the "Turner Diaries." Look up The Red Elephants' interview with Devon Stack and how they talk like buddies. Look up Black Pigeon Speaks and see him recommend Devon Stack's YT channel.
Look at all the similarity between literal neo-Nazi propaganda and what now passes as mainstream ideas within the Trumpist GOP on shows like Sean Hannity and Tucker Carlson.
Isn't it weird how George Soros is suddenly the scape goat for everything now? Isn't it weird that a lot of Trump supporters praise Vladimir Putin because "he's a traditionalist and staunch champion of Christianity?" Isn't it weird that Putin hates Soros and had a conversation with Trump about him in Helsinki? So why is there a pro-Putin message and anti-Soros message now?
Isn't it weird that Trump says not to trust the media, even Fox News now apparently? If we can't trust the press, who can we trust? Who becomes the arbiter of truth? Trump? Isn't that a bit self-serving?
Look up the "Rope. Tree. Journalist" shirt that has been seen multiple times at Trump rallies, and NO ONE SAYS ANYTHING TO THEM ABOUT IT. It is a literal incitement to violence, and if it ever came to pass would be the death knell for any semblance of the American Republic.
Open your eyes and see what these people are really about. It should make you feel physically ill what is going on. Trump is setting in motion what he needs to obtain absolute power in the country, and his most ardent supporters are already suggesting that Trump should get a 3rd or 4th term to make up for the impeachment.

Now go to another episode by John Oliver titled US History, fast forward to 21:20 to watch a clip of a woman in 1957 talk about the exact same thing but using terms typical of her time.
Other than the quality of videography, doesn't seem like a lot has changed in the last 60 years!

Good call. I remember that episode. That's the thing about shitty arguments: they don't improve with time.
I saw that episode too. You are spot on about it. :(
Thanks, irony
Ikr, this is nothing new and I am very glad someone else made this connection. Actual videos in history are similar: Coal miners in West Virginia saying the 'disappearing coal jobs' from the government (1930s). Also lads in the UK saying the foreigners (The Polish) 'took their jobs.' Sound familiar? It is taught (or not corrected) by parents generationally. Mine included and I left once I wised up. Stop the cycle of fear and hate.
It's also worth noting that an experiment done in NJ regarding adding low-income housing to a suburban neighborhood found that there was no difference in property values or crime rates. The idea that a small amount of low-income housing being added to a nice neighborhood is bad for the neighborhood as opposed to being good to the families who move in is bullshit.
Economic opportunity is frequently gated by location.

What he's probably not saying is just how long each of those people will be permitted to live. His euphemism for concentration camps is 'warehouses'.

I certainly think the lack of an audience is an asset to the show these days, when the sheer severity of the stories he’s covering is so much higher than it has been previously. It lends focus to the topic at hand, and helps shape the tone of what he says. I remember noticing in the first quarantined episode that when delivering a joke, the feeling it conveys is of a very different breed if there’s no audience laughter
Yeah I noticed that too these past couple of months
in 2020 "the best is yet to come" sounds like a threat
i laughed way to hard at her choice of words... had to go down to comments for that one...
@Nagoalc Like.... we already had to deal with so much shit-- but there is more to come beyond this... (or is this gonna be a /r-whoosh for me or you?) I don't know.... but that lady's face was hella scary.
@Robyn Justice it's so frustrating to try to tell people this because almost everyone thinks that sounds too alarmist but it's True. Trump is a Fascist, very classically fascist.
@@marching27 her face was so scary because she was high to the sky.
12:06 Felt like I was in a horror movie. Guys, if I disappear along with all other black people, you know what happened...
11:38 I am German and he is literally describing the holocaust
Yeah. Americans agree. Most just haven’t seen the video yet
Casually advocating genocide and claiming thats just what everyone is thinking
Seems there are some are in Georgia who agree…

He wasn't advocating for genocide. He was saying, "Hey, maybe, it's not a good idea to let violent criminals back into society."
@@abren5974 Actually, he was advocating for genocide. Preventing a group of people from having children is a form of genocide. And that's without even mentioning that he wants to keep a group of people in a place to die in. That is literally genocide.
@@abren5974 No he wasn't. He was saying let's lock up black people who shoplift in a warehouse until they die, to kill off a generation.
Explicitly calling for genocide.
Getting frigging sick of bigoted people saying "I'm just saying what everyone is thinking." WTF do you think you get to be a mouthpiece for the rest of us??
Sometimes I wonder if John is starting to regret moving to the USA. Things have gotten really bad really fast in America and if I were a naturalized citizen I would probably want to go back to my home country by now.
I doubt it. As frustrated as he is at the Trump Administration he clearly loves America.
UK isn't much better right now.
@@ipodtouch495 Word. And Oliver's also a man of privilege, and he doesn't only acknowledge that reality, but he also uses it to raise awareness, inform, and entertain.
the problem is, not many places are in. a better position than this right now, we are just more aware about America because of the way our media is shaped to be
My dad immigrated here about 30 years ago from New Zealand. In that time he’s seen 9/11, immigrants in cages, unprecedented school shootings, the 2008 recession, the opioid epidemic, has personally dealt with massive amounts of student loans, hate crimes, etc. and he told me that he has never regretted moving here... until this year
Living in a historic time is an exausting thing.
It’s not really historic
Lol it really is
@@AB-ee5tb Why not?
It's only historic if there is change at the end. Since trump will be re-elected in Nov all that is happening now is just exhausting BS
I hear you. Take a break from media for a bit if possible, detox, relax, and come back stronger. Take care of yourself. : )
Wow, that cop is insane. Stop them from having children because they stole clothes? Locked away with no recreation? That's insane
Not “lock them away with no recreation”
“Lock then away so they can’t have children and then die”
That’s a definition of genocide!
The thing is he said it knowing that enough people agree with him so while it is insane to you (as it should be) it is a normal enough thought that he feared no push back from anyone that mattered.
That's Kenosha and Racine in a basket.
but he said they will make them a mall or amazon warehouses later
EVERY kop is insane. Do your homework: KOPS WERE INVENTED BY KINGs AND DICTATORS TO KILL OR BEAT UP ANYONE WHO QUESTIONS AUTHORITY.
The history of Kops is billions of times WORSE than any of you think. Slave Patrols were the LIGHTEST of their sins!
Wait, did they just admit that a confederate statue is “a divisive symbol”?
*flag. No, just Haley.. Trump wont denounce it..
....... wellllllll Nikki is the scarier type of racist that tries to hide history under layers of mis-truths/semi truths........... its hard not to admit at least that.... but man I dislike her.
Republicans are such hypocrites that need to run around in circles to keep their lies in line. You can call them out on pretty much everything they say because they’re never objectively correct on anything.
Nikki Haley is just trying to position herself to be a leader of the Republican party after Trump is gone. She’ll deny ever supporting Trump’s bullshit, repudiate it, and say she was against him all along. She’s just protecting her long-term career interests.
Who knew the flag that symbolized the complete separation of the Southern US from the union could be “divisive”
Of course it’s fucking divisive, stating the obvious, still there’s nothing wrong with the flag, it’s apart of History and shouldn’t be censored
Did that sherif just casually suggest genocide? Really?!
Its been weeks that Burn Loot Murder cultists wants to put White right wingers people in "CAmps" to re-educate them or even kill them all.
And its the SHerif statement thats ticks you off?...
He did!
I'm from austria and that guy seemed like he and hitler would've gotten on really well.............. i am disgusted by america, they helped save europe from hitler and his ideology, only to succumb to the same shit 70 years later... y'all need reforms... more checks and balances... and we all need to continue fighting fascism and populism... yeah they are easy to elect but they're so hard to get rid of once they show their true face... America shouldnt be repeating germany's mistakes, especially not after the US fought hard to rid europe of this evil... the soldiers who fell fighting the cancer that spread through central europe are surely turning in their graves...
He didnt suggest genocide he suggested people who cross a certain threshold of crime should be put away forever so basically a really really long death penalty, that includes the 60% of white meth head people in Wisconsin prisons too. He basically said “if youre a criminal were gonna kill you...by locking you away in a warehouse for 100 years” which is still outrageous but to say he is referring to genocide is a ridiculous stretch.
@@Mugthraka Lmao, please stop. The Sheriff is in a position of power, some rando who associates with BLM is not. Stop being so afraid of nothing.
Larry Kudlow saying that the pandemic is over OVER A VIDEO FEED cracked me up! Why aren't you there in person then Lar?
The main part of covid was over though right?
If you give the man some leniency you might have a more normal response.
Is anyone surprised that Kushner, a man who has been handed literally everything in his life to him by his dad and his father-in-law, would make a comment like that?
His disconnect and utter stupidity are only exceeded by his entitlement.
At least those basketball players earned their money..most of them were poor or middle class. I doubt anyone of them was born rich like Kushner...even though his dad was doing illegal stuff.
Every time that sycophant whimp opens his trap, journalists should ask, how's the peace in the middle east 🙄
I keep wishing that just as interviews with the Trump administration begin, the interviewer would break in and say something like, "wait, why should we listen to this buffoon?" and then cut away. Then, the would-be interviewer would address the audience and say, "sorry about that folks, we'll try to get someone on who actually has knowledge about the situation."
That was literally my first thought when I heard him say that. He grew up with a silver spoon and was given all his money. Money that was gained by his father being a slumlord and committing multiple crimes. Yet he has the nerve to say that shit about a bunch of basketball players that were born into poverty and manage to rise above it through hardwork.
